I don't think Megan will make the Quidditch team riding a broomstick like this!

Smashing the Gingerbread House
A few days ago after dinner, we told Amelia that we could eat the gingerbread house. Here was her reaction:
Both she and Ben took turns using the meat hammer to try to break it apart. It was pretty sturdy! Amelia thought it was going to make a loud noise, so she kept her ears plugged while Ben was smashing it.
I think our house is structurally unsound now, what do you think?

Today before lunch, the girls and I were playing with playdoh, and Megan wandered away. I didn't think too much of it, until I noticed that she was eating something:
Clearly, she'd delighted with herself!

Record Highs
Yesterday and today have been beautiful days here in Madison! We've hit 50 degrees for the high temperature both days, and we've even had some sun. So of course we took advantage of the nice weather to go outside and play. Thankfully, the sun and warm temps melted the sheet of ice that was covering our driveway, so we didn't have to worry about slipping. There were still some small snow piles in the morning, and the girls had fun making and throwing snowballs, and then stomping the snowballs flat. The stomping was their favorite part.
Today we played with sidewalk chalk, had races up and down the sidewalk, and invented a new game called "Throw rocks into the rain gutters and listed to them clatter to the ground." Amelia invented that game, but Megan had a good time playing, too. In case Ben ever reads this, we did make sure to get all the rocks out of the gutter at the end of our game.
I was trying to get a good picture of Amelia's really high jumps, but Megan kept walking in front of the camera. I think the above photo is really funny because it looks like Amelia is attacking Megan.
Doesn't Megan have the most beautiful little face?

Amelia's Drawings
Amelia has learned to draw two new things - can you tell what they are?
The bottom one is a cat sitting on a cloud. She wrote "CAT" above the cat, in case you couldn't tell. And she decided the cat's name was Sophie Molly Megan.
